Application of Trimethylgermanyl-Substituted Bisphosphine Ligands with Enhanced Dispersion Interactions to Copper-Catalyzed Hydroboration of Disubstituted Alkenes

We report the incorporation of large substituents based on heavy main-group elements that are atypical in ligand architectures to enhance dispersion interactions and, thereby, enhance enantioselectivity. Specifically, we prepared the chiral biaryl bisphosphine ligand (TMG-SYNPHOS) containing 3,5-bis(trimethylgermanyl)phenyl groups on phosphorus and applied this ligand to the challenging problem of enantioselective hydrofunctionalization reactions of 1,1-disubtituted alkenes.
